EXC_BAD_ACCESS (SIGBUS) error ONLY with Word and Excel

Whenever I try to launch Microsoft Word or Excel either from the Dock or from the applications folder, the programs fail to launch and I get this in the report: EXCBADACCESS (SIGBUS).
What's odd is that both programs will start if I double click an existing Word or Excel document.
I just cannot start the programs manually from the Dock or the App folder.
This problem started after I installed a Quicktime package called Perian, and the problem persists even after removing the package.
I'd appreciate any help in solving this problem.

Did you find out anything regarding the EXCBADACCESS? I'm running into the same problem. I cannot restart any of my Word apps. I can open existing Word & Excel documents. Please let me know. I'm desperate. I've also reinstalled my Word application. Thanks.

    Just adding to what CSound has said.
    Pages and Numbers will change Word and Excel documents when they open and close them.
    Sometimes the change is subtle and sometimes not. With the latest versions of Pages and Numbers, more likely not.
    So don't think you are going to work with MsOffice files without problems. You will always have something not right and in some cases really annoyingly not right. Like having all the text from Pages appear bold in MsWord, or page breaks in the wrong place or some objects and graphics not appearing in one or the other.
    If working between different Operating Systems and MsOffice files, I also recommend LibreOffice. It opens and saves nearly all file formats. Unfortunately not .pages or numbers. Yet. The folks at LibreOffice are busy adding to it all the time, and making sure it works in all Operating systems, Mac, Windows and Linux and they are promising iOS as well soon.

  • Convert error from 2003 word and excel to pdf.

    Have Acrobat 8 Pro with vista business. Can no longer convert 2003 word or excel files to pdf format.  Get a convert error, please corect problem. Other file formats work file. Am current on updates. Any ideas?

    So what you are saying
    On the server we have to install LiveCycle and MS Office. LiveCycle will have some API exposed that will take Word or Excel as inut parameter. Then LiveCycle will use MS Office internally to convert the office document into PDF.
    Do you happen to know the memory footprints this procees will have?
    Also how much does LiveCycle cost?

  • I can't print with my schedule at Word and Excel, help me please

    Hi Brothers!
    I have a trouble with Word and Excel 2011 on Lion. Last time, when i used Snow Leopart 10.6.6,  i  can see a white button to control formatting bar , like this : http://f.cl.ly/items/3T1n3e351I22080X3h3i/help.png, but now, it look like that :http://f.cl.ly/items/1u0j182w2e0O1m1K1k0A/Screen%20Shot%202011-08-16%20at%209.56 .18%20AM.png
    And last time, I can print Word or Excel with schedule (EX : printed after 5 min), but now I can’t  =.= http://cl.ly/1u3E1R0w071k2f1Z0g2e
    So, please help me, thanks you so much!
    I hope to see your letter soon, here my email : [email protected]
    Best regard!

    Issue 1.  The losenge button that controls the formatting bar is no longer present in OS X 10.7.  It is not present in any applicatioin or Finder window.
    Issue 2.  The Schedule function in the print window has also been removed in OS X 10.7.
    You may want to give feedback to Apple about these items.  You can do so from the feedback page at http://www.apple.com/feedback/macosx.html .

  • Word and Excel applications for iPhone

    It is disappointing that the iPhone didn't come with word and excel-type applications. Any insights someone?

    Whine, Whine, Whine.
    Seriously. If you're upset because you have 10 years worth of calendar info and 17 bazillion contacts, and you can't use a microsoft product to keep a document that lists the last time your cute little poodle Balmers did his business, then I absolutely envy your life. And you should return your iPhone.
    Take a look at the included applications on this thing: Calendar, Photo (represented by a pretty sunflower), YouTube. Of all the included applications, there's only one that screams "Self-Involved Road Warrior," and that's the Stock app (and even that can be argued).
    This is an amazing phone that was made for people who don't have their heads up their rears and believe that their lives are over if they can't edit that spread sheet on a phone the size of a calculator. It's a phone, not a computer. It's computer-ish, but it's not a computer. Please get over that, and stop whining that it can't run your highly specialized medical software right out of the box on version 1.
    And quite frankly, I don't want everyone creating freakish 3rd party software and mucking it up as bad as Palm and Windows Mobile are. I like Apple's vision, which is why I purchase Apple products.
    This is Apple's first phone, and they want the experience to be as great as it can be, so they chose to launch the device with few options. I mean, really, people are having so many issues with just figuring out how to sync this thing with iCal, can you imagine what these boards would have looked like if they'd launched their VERSION ONE phone after releasing an SDK? They'd be 10 times this with people complaining that their iPod app keeps playing music from their 3rd party Polka mixing app. It'd be a disaster.
    If you don't like the iPhone, return it. Otherwise, for heaven's sake, just enjoy this beautiful little device.

  • Does mac have a word and excel equivalent, does mac have a word and excel equivalent, does mac have a word and excel equivalent

    does mac have a word and excel equivalent or do I need to use Windows for Mac and get the software separately?

    Mac has Pages and Numbers, which are mostly compatible with word and excel.   Both are available in the App Store for $20 each.
    You can also buy Microsoft's office for Mac suite. 

  • Using add-ins in Word and Excel, I want to create pdfs to display page fit and with bookmark panel displayed. I cannot find how to do this.

    I am trying to create pdfs using add-ins in Word and Excel through Acrobat Pro XI. I cannot set defaults for page size or bookmark display. Does anyone know how to do this?

    Page size is dictated by what is configured for the authoring file. For custom pages sizes you'd make a matching custom page size for Acrobat (see Acrobat's Help).
    For PDF Bookmarks you use Acrobat's PDFMaker with a supported version of Word or Excel.
    You configure the PDFMaker's Preferences such that PDF Bookmarks can be made.
    Coming from Word the default Word Headings are used. You can also configure to used the default Word Styles.
    Coming from Excel you can only use the names of the worksheets within a work book.
    Alternatively you can create Bookmarks for a PDF manually using Acrobat XI (and earlier versions).
    Note that Word "Bookmarks" are in no way the same as PDF "Bookmarks".
    Be well...

  • I started to download Maverick but then read that Word and Excel do not work  with Maverick.  I hit pause on the download. How do I stop the download.  In non technical terms please!

    How do I stop the download of Maverick on my MacBookPro?  I started downloading then discovered that 2008 Word and Excel do not work  with Maverick. I have too many files in the 2008 version to upgrade them at this time.  I just need instructions in non technical terms to stop the Maverick download.

    I did the same as Tapmr and have paused the "upgrade".  So am I to understand that the upgrade only downloads and will not automatically install it?  I am an extreme novice here, and cannot afford any issues after I upgrade/download.  I don't know how to make a clone copy as you suggested either.
    I need assurance that if the upgrade is allowed to continue that I will be able to delete the upgrade downloaded and continue on as before with my regular system.

  • How to create rtf template to view report in Word and Excel, with numeric f

    Hi,
    Please help me!
    How to create rtf template to view report in Word and Excel, with numeric formatted fields (like this 999 999 999,99 with spaces between numbers) and then end user be able to process those fields with Excel tools (sum, etc).
    Thank you.

    From what I have seen Excel can not handle 999 999 999.00. You can use 999999999.00 and then format it as you want in the xls bt you can not have values like 999 999 999.00 coming from publisher output and have functions on the values in Excel

  • Are operating files only within Windows (C:) or are Word and Excel files ok in Documents and (C:) folders in 8.1?

    A Microsoft tech said "oh-oh" when he saw Word and Excel files, and I think other files, in Windows (C:). He said only operating files should be in that folder or a user might delete an operating file by mistake. I have Word and Excel files in
    both (C:) and Documents folders. There is some overlap but there are different files in each. When I open a Word file it defaults to (C:) not Documents. Sometimes default location is SkyDrive. So unpredictability is my experience. The questions are what is
    correct default and how to make it so.
    Microsoft store in San Diego transferred files from old computer to new one and this default is how the computer was set up.

    Hi, Tyro.
    What a mess. Usually system files in the Windows folder are protected from being deleted by users, but not all of them.
    Here are some ideas:
    Go back to the Microsoft store and tell them to fix it. They caused it, it was their mistake, they are responsible to fix it.
    If that is not possible because they are too far away... find another Microsoft Store if possible and have them fix it.
    Last resort: If it was me, I'd just back up all the files that I care about onto my SkyDrive (now OneDrive) account or a reliable thumb drive. Then do a factory re-image. Maybe back up the files and make the MS store do it. If I had purchased Office
    2013 (it sounds like you have Office 2013), then I would have them reinstall that as well.
    Keep the store involved because it is their fault.
    At least call the MS store in San Diego and ask them what they suggest. Put them on the spot. They are the ones that screwed up and are responsible for the copying process.
    Good luck!
    Best wishes, Davin Mickelson

  • With IPAD 2 may we use softwares similar to WORD and EXCEL?

    with IPAD 2 may we use softwares similar to WORD and EXCEL?

    There are a number of apps that are compatible with Office documents. Apple makes iOS versions of their own iWork apps (Pages, Keynote, Numbers) that can be purchased separately. There are also 3rd party combined suites that cost less than the separate Apple apps. Ones often recommended include Documents 2 Go,  Quickoffice and Office2 HD.
    If you can accept needing a network connection whenever you want to use the apps and have an Office 365 subscription, Microsoft has just released their Office Mobile app, though it has significant limitations. Or a server-based solution such as CloudOn might be an option for you.

  • Printing issue with microsoft word and excel

    I open Microsoft 2004 Word and Excel separately and clicked on File / Open....not responding and so force quite. I went to Finder and opened the file directly and It did. But when I clicked Print, the print page doesn't show up. I closed the file. I opened other softwares and tried the Print and Save as PDF and it worked. I booted several times and reinstaled the Microsoft 2004 from original disk and did updates up to 11.6.3 versions. I rebooted again and still the same problem. Please help !

    If you applied the Security Update from a few days ago it sounds like you are affected with this problem:

    A good replacement is the freeware suite, Libre Office, which is similar in functionality to Office 2007 for Windows but without Outlook.
